MAC makes a very good product. I actually have their setup on my Explorer now, but am using my K&N filter - it was still good, so I kept the Mac filter new for when I need it.
I won't say you'll notice a huge difference with it, but it is a lot less restrictive than the stock airbox. YOu'll hear the difference, and notice a small bit of power with it. Definitely worth it to me.
I wish Volant would make a kit like they do for the 4.0's. That would be the one to get, but the MAC is a good choice!
hey Cobra i ordered the Mac intake, but should i get chip too--its more $$$ than im gonna spend now-but what in performance upgrades should i consider next- besides the intake im stock-but i want more
Well - decide on how far you want to go - performance wise I mean. If you are only wanting bolt on performance, then I would go with a chip next or exhaust. Those two things are going to help you more than you know. Mass air sensors, and things of that sort help a certain bit, but you don't see the gains for the dollar sign unless you really get down and dirty.
If you are wanting to really get wild on it - and I mean drop a lot of money, I would go with the exhaust first and then other things before the chip. I have gone a little farther than most want to go - money wise. I'm not trying to brag - don't take it that way. But most people do not want to drop $5000 or more into the engine.
If you just want some good extra power, I would get a Diablo chip next, then do the exhaust. Or vise versa. Like I said, you may get those two done and get the performance you are looking for. I'll help any way I can - no matter which way you want to go...
First thing is decide how much money you can and want to put into it. Then we can go from there....
